Israel knew they needed a savior, but they constantly and consistently forgot about God delivering them from their enemies. How does God work Israel's suffering for His own glory? Learn how as we talk about the first 3 judges to rule over Israel.

God's plan for our lives involves intentional, reverent rest. If our success is based on our performance, then our spiritual walk is like a tree with shallow roots.

God's plan for His church doesn't involve building walls around it, but rather to go forth to all nations and share the Gospel and make disciples, and prayer is what prepares us for that work.
